I can't see any mention on the web page:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=passwd&sektion=5&manpath=FreeBSD+6.0-current

Creating a locked user via adduser on FreeBSD 5.3 give the following 
entry in master.passwd:
testu:*LOCKED*$1$wgpYdQ8Z$2H3SbvgLmQVV9zDxhSgtp/:[...]

Is this version dependant?  Or tool-dependant?

     Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
